The day that I cannot blog is a sad day indeed. I didn't post yesterday, and to me it feels like I haven't posted in forever. I can finally start to do the posts I promised you guys, since I have two days off for Thanksgiving (Happy Thanksgiving by the way!). I will start with this OOTD featuring the lace dress from Karmaloop. This was a gift from my dad, which was a great surprise to me since he isn't very keen on presents and I didn't think he payed attention when I told him I wanted this dress.
You can find the dress HERE:
I call this "Executively Sultry" because on one hand it can look very nice and put together when worn under a jacket or blazer. If you take off the jacket/blazer, it will be a very sexy top/dress. I use this dress as a top as well because it is relatively really short!
Blazer: 'Material Girl' brand from Macy's
Dress: Karmaloop
Jeans/tights: 'Material Girl' brand from MAcy's
Flats: I bought them at Sears a long time ago
Without the jacket and adding a belt:
And excuse the..um..sheerness...
In conclusion, I really love this dress. It is short and a bit sheer, but you can definitely work with it to make it more wearable. I should mention that the back is pretty much completely sheer...hehe. I am not usually into the very revealing, sheer clothing, but I like that I could add a black cami underneath and make this totally appropriate. What do you guys think? Yeah I am not the best at fashion, but I try my best!

That dress/top is really nice. I have same problems with dresses being way too short. I'm pretty tall so it's rare that a mini-dress is ever a decent length. i love to wear them as tops though, just like you have here.
ReplyDeleteReally nice outfit!
